your Honor, and I'LL did it by mis-
take" The Judge seemed to think a mis-
take might possibly happen that way once
in hundred years, and dismissed the
excited and suffering prisoner. ulia
kehoe, lady seventy-eight years of age,
appeared and on promising to repair a GER
tain dilapidated sidewalk was informed
that her case was continued one week, in

complaining witness stated how Frisbee

appeared in person and with counsel, to
resist the charge of being woman beater.
in as much as he was SO charged BY Rosa
King, who lives on Fourth street. Rosa
told bitter story of how LATE had abused
her and finally struck and knocked her
down in the hallway. Her story was cor
robOrated by that OF her II year old dangh-
ter. Lafe made a statement fully estab-
fishing Rosa's disgrace and his own shame
and bolstered up the story, which needed
no confirmation, by calling three or four
witnesses. In rebuttal Mrs Alyarado said
LATE had asked her to intercede with Rosa
King and get her to not appear against him
and he would pay $50 to the Injured Rosa.
After patient hearing of the whole muddy
mess, the Court imposed a fine of $40,
which seemed to be satisfactory to the
young man and his friends. ..... The case of
battery against All You and Hong Coon
was continued until Tuesday.
